Rivers Whispering

Basked me when I met you after long way from mountain
Through the hurdles of life

In this pilgrimage, many beings dipped their legs into my heart 
Saints, sinners, god men.... some dirtied me 
Others made me holy 

Carrying their marks through times  on my shoulders as my offerings 
 to you. ocean ....offers these gifts to you, all the years
In this eternal journey 

When you hugged me and preached the “Salt of life “
Then tears of ecstasy overflown and wet my lips

When I dissolved in you with all my sins and virtues
Inner being murmured 
“I wouldn't have been here ............ Without you”.
